A/N: Nobody has sent in any characters at all, Although, I suppose that's what I get for adding myself into a story.... Well, This chapter took a while to get out. Also, New character because whatever.
Chapter 3-
The group split in two. Chris and Chloe were together and George, Bobby and Lucy were with each other. It was dark now, Nearly midnight and it was fairly cold. The group had been outside since around 10 PM when it was starting to get dark.
Chris and Chloe opened the door of room number 24, The putrid smell of rotten corpses hit them as soon as they did so. Chris stepped inside the room, His blade in his hand.
There were three corpses lying on the ground, Their eyes were either gone, Or half gone.
"You might not want to come in here" Chris said to Chloe.
"If it looks as bad as it smells, I won't" Chloe replied.
"Trust me it's way worse than the way it smells" Chris said.
Chris began to root around the room, Searching for food, water and weapons, He found some mouldy bread which couldn't be used for anything, a bottle of clean water, a half eaten packet of crackers, An apple, and some rotten milk, He took everything bar the bread and milk, On his way out, Something grabbed his ankle, He almost fell over, But managed to shake free. He quickly walked out of the room and placed the stuff down. He pulled out his Blade and held it defensively,
"There's something in there" Chris said to Chloe.
Chloe took a step back and held her knife with a firm grip. They stood defensively waiting for the adult to crawl out of the room, It was even more dangerous with no lights on, They only had dimly lit flashlights so they could see a little of what was coming.
The sight was horrendous out came an adult, However, the adult's legs were only attatched by a chunk of flesh on it's left side, the putrid smell it carried with it spread throughout the air.
Chris brought his blade up and struck down with such power that the blade bent slightly when it got through the adults skull. The blood splattered on the two teenagers, Chloe jumped back and let out a slight scream. Chris pulled the blade from the zombies head and they continued to explore the complex.

Ruth was running, Never looking back, fearing what chased her. It was unlike anything she'd ever seen, It was giant and was emanating a green glow, it left off smoke that looked almost poisonous. She was planning on regrouping with her friends until the mutated adult had got in her way. She was now trying to find a suitable way to get back to her base.
Cars littered the street most of them were destroyed, They were the only reason Ruth was alive, she was small enough to fit through the gaps in between them, where as the adult had to push them out of the way. Ruth could hear the sound of metal hitting the road behind her. The adult would be able to grab her soon, It would be over for her.
She heard an engine of some sort. It sounded close, very close. Just then a red Ferrari swerved around the corner, the windows were blacked out and there was noticeable surface damage. It was heading straight for Ruth. Ruth stood still and just stood there, The car stopped a few inches a way and the driver rolled the window down. "Get in" The voice said to her.
She didn't hesitate, If this person was going to kill her, It would surely be a nicer death than getting crushed by the adult.
Ruth got into the back seat, there was two passengers in the car, One a young boy around 16, the other canine.
The car turned around making marks on the street and drove away quick.
"How did you find me" Ruth asked.
"I saw you from the other side of the street and decided to help you" The boy said.
"What's your name" She asked him.
"I'm Jack, Jack Eason, You?" He replied.
"My name's Ruth Diamond. I'm 14, How old are you." She asked.
"Just turned 15 last week" He replied.
"How come you haven't turned yet" Ruth asked.
"I don't kno-" Jack was cut off when they hit an obstacle.

Chris opened the door to apartment 36 as Chloe let out a scream. Chris pulled the door closed and immediately turned around to Chloe. Chloe was pinned down by an adult around three times her size. Chris tried to stab it with his blade but it pushed him away. He hit the glass window with his back and it fell through. He managed to grab hold of the window ledge with his right hand. He could not pull himself up so he kicked the window beneath him in and slowly dropped into that one.
From there he ran up the stairs back to where Chloe was lying there screaming in pain. Chris managed to sneak behind the adult and stab him in the back. The effect was immediate and the adult dropped on top of Chloe, Chris pushed the adults corpse off her and lifted her up. She could not walk and was losing a lot of blood. Her odds of survival were very low. Chris reopened the door to apartment 36 and lay her gently down on the bed.
The blood spread onto the blanket and it started to seep off the bed. Chris sat there shouting for help, unsure of what to do. He ran to the bathroom and searched the cabinet. It was empty all it had was some old toothpaste. He spotted a first aid kit on the wall, he tore it off and opened it. It was empty except for plasters with sponge bob poorly printed on them.
George burst into the room and saw Chloe lying on the bloody bed. Bobby and Lucy entered the room next. Chloe was in shock and she would've looked at peace except for the blood covering her body. Chris started to throw stuff around and kick things. Chloe called for Chris weakly.
Chris approached her slowly.
"Yes?" He said gently trying to hold back the tears.
"This isn't your fault" She croaked.
He kissed her, This would be the first and last time he kissed her. They both knew it.
Her eyes closed.
"Chloe. Chloe? CHLOE?" He screamed.
They went back to their apartment. George and Bobby carrying Chloes body down the stairs. They lay her on the bathroom floor whilst Lucy comforted Chris.
Chris didn't look at Chloe. This was the first time he'd seen someone be killed as she was.
Chris somehow thought that they were meant to be together, Like they would survive as a couple.
How wrong he was. How very wrong.
A/N: I made this a little longer than most of my other chapters. I also killed Chloe off to show that nobody is safe, At all. Please leave a review and send a character in :P
